CustomerPaul from angels camp CA

Handle on latch self-destructed - cheap plastic

Shut down power, open door, remove screws holding inside and outside of door together. Latch is free at this point except for wiring. Transfer wiring connectors to new latch assembly. Put it back together, reversing the process. The new latch is similar to the old except that the mounting of the handle is far superior. This one should far outlast the OEM part.

Door latch broke off

I followed directions other people shared! First, remove the eleven screws on the door. Pull off door panel. Pull off electrical connectors (we needed pliers to do this).

CustomerJames from Lanesville IN

Latch handle broke

Order part from PartSelect.com and received it at my front door the next day, even though I opted for the cheapest delivery method !!Removed 11 screws from inside door panel. Disconnected two wires on broken assembly and attached same wires to new assembly. Set new assembly in position, closed panel, replaced screw (do not over tighten), and in five minutes I was finished. The replacement part is a much improved design over the original.

CustomerMike from Cresson PA

The door latch had broken

Per the reports of others, after turning off power to the dishwasher, I removed the 11 torx screws that attach the inner & outer panels of the door. Once the door latch assembly is visible, its important to remember the polarity of the wiring attached to it-facing the dishwasher, black to the left, white to the right. As others reported, it does require some effort to disconnect the wires from the latch assembly, but not too much. These can then be attached to the new latch assembly.Also, as others reported, there are plastic tabs that are guides to position the latch assembly, but they break off. I didn't find them necessary to the repair anyway, since two of the (11) torx screws for the inner panel will line up with the latch assembly to attach it.I just put all the screws back in and restored the power (my dishwasher was hard wired in to its own breaker on my electrical panel). The latch worked properly, and the dishwasher operated accordingly when used the next time.

Latch and rack stop broken

I removed the 11 torx screws which hold the cover in place. Then I had to remove the electrical connectors from the old switch (a flat head screwdriver or something else to break the connection helps). The new one plugged right in, and was back into place in minutes. The rack stop was just a remove and replace. Extremely easy!!

CustomerJeff from IRVINE CA

Dishwasher door handle broken

I read some stories on this repair and after I got the part I had no problem complete the job. only thing I can add on this you need to select the right part. from the drawing, I don't see the handle is part of the latch assembly, but it is. so just order the latch assmbly even you only need to replace the handle. In my case, I ordered the handle, and I received the latch assembly. the handle is a few bucks less than assembly. so thanks for partselect staff to send me the right parts for a few bucks less.

CustomerDonald from Lufkin TX

The latch had broken loose and the door had to be pulled open.

Turned off electricity to the dishwasher. Removed screws on the inside perimeter of the door. Latch assembly is held in place by two of those screws.

Disconnected two sets of wires and plugged into the new assembly. Lined up the holes and put the screws back in starting with the two holding the latch assembly.
